Seventy years in a life of a bipolar woman. Her deviant Thoughts and the powerful Medications

      Аннотация: "This is a fascinating and insightful autobiographical account of the day-to-day struggles that people with bipolar disorder undergo. The author candidly narrates and describes the challenges forced on her by her psychiatric illness that further get complicated by aspects of personal identity development, limited family support and cultural upheavals. Elegantly written, this book easily brings out the trials and tribulations those patients with bipolar disorder face throughout their lives--within themselves, their families and the society. It clearly highlights how spirituality and faith, when combined with appropriate medications and therapy can help conquer the scourge of this disabling illness. This book is a courageous testament to a life lived with fortitude and determination despite the challenges and stigma associated with chronic psychiatric illness. Outstanding!" --Vishal Madaan, MD, Omaha, NE
